The GENerate student art competition returns to The Base Gallery in January, and welcomes talented entries from pupils within a 30-mile radius  

Following the overwhelming success of past years, The Base, Greenham is looking ahead to the return of the GENerate student art exhibition from Friday 9th to Sunday 25th January.  

Now in its fourth year, GENerate is a celebration of young artistic talent from schools and colleges within a 30-mile radius of The Base. It offers students a unique opportunity to exhibit their artwork in a professional gallery setting. 

To continue to showcase the incredible variety and uniqueness of young people’s creativity, The Base is welcoming new and returning schools to take part. Each institution may submit up to 10 pieces of 2D or 3D artwork, which will be subject to a selection process based on presentation, creativity, originality, technical skill, and variety of media used. 

Taking part in GENerate is free and offers invaluable experience for young artists, inspiring them to pursue their creative passions. 

The application deadline is Friday, 24th October at 5pm. To apply, please submit one form per school with images of students’ work (JPEG format, titled with each student’s name and artwork title) by emailing admin@thebasegreenham.co.uk
